4.Warm roti following directions on packet. Serve yogurt mixture topped with eggs and tomato wedges. Drizzle with reserved herb mixture; sprinkle with extra coriander. Serve with roti.

You will need about 1 large bunch of coriander for this recipe. If roti is unavailable, accompany the curry with pappadums, naan or other flat bread.
